Hello Developers and Partners of Windows Live Agents,

We are very excited that 5.0 is here! We have received many questions from all of you regarding the transition from 4.3 to 5.0.  Windows Live Agents Partner Support is no longer accepting projects developed in 4.3. All agent projects should be developed in 5.0 using our SDK in Visual Studio and submitted through our Partner hosting site at http://phi.agents.live.com. If you send us a new project developed in 4.3 or 5.0 via email, we will unfortunately not be able to accept it. If you have not already downloaded the 5.0 SDK in Visual Studio, you can do so here. For instructions on getting started with hosting, please click here.

If we are currently hosting an agent of yours that was developed in 4.3, please continue to send us updates in 4.3 via email. We will let you know when we are ready to migrate your project from 4.3 to 5.0.

Thanks,

Windows Live Agents Team
